Chicken Tacos Recipe – Quick, Healthy, and Tasty!  

If you’re a fan of Rachel Ray, then you like to make meals that are 30 minutes or less! Here’s a quick Chicken Tacos recipe that the whole family will love that you can usually prepare in 15-20 minutes or less. Chicken Tacos are very easy for anyone to make and you only need very basic ingredients:

  • 8 individual raw chicken “tenders” or 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 pkg shredded taco cheese
  • 1 bag shredded lettuce
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1 container lo-fat sour cream
  • Lite Ranch dressing
  • 2 pkgs fat-free tortilla shells

Directions: Alright – this is pretty easy and you can change the items to make it to your taste if you want. I like to use chicken “tenders” because when they cook in the pan you can chop them up with the spatula when they are about 3/4 cooked. Just put a skillet on the stove on med-high and add a few capfuls of cooking oil and your chicken. Cook 5-6 minutes on one side and then turn them over and season with taco seasoning. If you don’t have taco seasoning, just use some Cumin, garlic powder, and Chili powder. When they are about 3/4 cooked on the back side then begin to chop them up with the spatula. Chop for 3-4 minutes until they’re completely cooked.

Dice your tomatoes and place in a bowl. Heat your flour tortilla shells in the microwave for 60 seconds. Then what I do is place 3-4 tortillas per plate, spread one spoonful of sour cream on the bottom of each, add a tablespoon of shredded cheese on each, then about 2 tbsp cooked chicken, and last the lettuce and then the tomato. Just before serving I add a few teaspoons of ranch dressing on top of each one, which tastes really good, but also keeps them from being too dry. If you don’t like ranch, you can substitute salsa instead! Do you have any good Taco recipes?? Comment now!
